Bill Clinton the Vegan?

I had no idea but just read an article about Bill Clinton and how he switched to a vegan lifestyle.

bill-clintonI am not sure how much you have noticed or if it is just the people and blogs and facebook people I see but it seems like being a vegan is not nearly as crazy as it used to seem.

I remember as a kid people would be vegetarians, mainly just not eating meat or fish, and I used to think of it as unhealthy and very fringe lifestyle. But now, veganism abounds. We have a vegan cookbook at home and the foods, although a little strange, seem to be really good.

Not sure if I am ready to go vegan anytime soon but the whole idea of eating a cleaner diet is very tempting. I still have a lot of room to move in my diet right now. I take in a bit too much fat, I eat some processed foods every single day, I drink coffee, and I have a bit of a sweet tooth.

I really believe that people that are eating a vegan meal plan are on the right track as far as getting healthy goes. There are a lot of problems with North American cattle and chicken farming and the unhealthy additives, steroids, and unclean conditions of having so many animals in a cramped area to bring down fast food prices.

On the other hand I do still have a lot of problem with giving up chicken burgers, steaks, and hamburgers.

I guess just trying a few vegan dishes and cleaning up my diet is the best bet for me right now.

    Collecting the Hours

    When I’m not feeling well, my acceptable food list gets very narrow. This morning, I woke up with the worst migraine I’ve ever had. A migraine where light and the slightest movements hurt. Nausea was my only response to pain. Nine hours later and I’m feeling back to normal.

    I ended up eating a bowl of grapes in the bed this morning while sipping water. And then when the headache was gone, about 45 minutes ago, I ate two bowls of angel hair pasta very ravenously. This Seeds of Change sauce is so good:

    Pasta and sauce with feta was not on the meal plan for today, but I’m glad to be full and feeling better now.

    Dinner will be a salad and maybe some fish and I’m already looking forward to our evening walk/run. Time to make up for the missing morning hours.
